Domain for sale

startupbroke.com

startupbroke.com is a 15-year-old domain

Startupbroke.com is a sharp brand for the hustle of building lean: bootstrapping, stretching runway, and launching without VC money — with room for comedy and anti-VC media about being startup-broke. Bundle with stonebrokestartup.com when you want the harder-edged companion.

Tell me what you will use startupbroke.com for. I sell to businesses that will use the domain, not flippers.

How you buy one

  1. Send your offer. The form fills in the name and the ask. Tell me what you will use it for. I reply within one business day.
  2. We agree on price and terms. Pay in full, or spread it over three monthly payments with the name held in escrow until the last one clears.
  3. We open an Escrow.com transaction. Escrow.com is a licensed escrow agent. They hold your money, not me.
  4. You fund escrow. I unlock the name and send the transfer code the same day.
  5. You accept the transfer at your registrar. Most transfers finish in three to five business days.
  6. Escrow releases the funds once you confirm you have the name.
  • One buyer. I do not run an auction against you after you make an offer.

  • WHOIS is public — verify ownership yourself.
  • Registered since September 2011.
